Tiffany Aching is ready to begin her apprenticeship in magic. She expects spells and magic – not chores and ill-tempered goats! Surely there must be more to witchcraft than this.

What Tiffany doesn’t know is that an insidious, disembodied creature is pursuing her. This time, neither Mistress Weatherwax (the greatest witch in the world) nor the fierce, six-inch-high Wee Free Men can protect her. In the end, it will take all of Tiffany’s inner strength to save herself… if it can be done at all.

The second book in the Tiffany Aching sequence.

review of A Hat Full of Sky

4 stars

the Tiffany Aching series continues to be my favorite witch books. Granny Weatherwax shows up again, and i even like her a little more than usual. i think this one was a little more heavy-handed than Wee Free Men, what with Granny more or less explaining The Point to Tiffany, but Tiffany figured out a lot of it herself, and maybe because this novel is directed at younger readers, it didn't feel unpleasantly heavy-handed to me. also, i think the Nac Mac Feegle were a bit superfluous in this one, but i like them, so i'll let that slide.

Oooh

No rating

This one is really nice. It's exciting, and it has a lot of Granny Weatherwax, next to other super cool characters, and there's even some musing on what it means to be a witch that is not only super cool, but also has Esme get sentimental! Love it.

There is plural stuff again, both the more explicit kind and more indications that being a witch means not being too singlet in general, and being comfortable with that.
